Such a beautiful and compelling story ! It's so unfair that women have to fight for equal rights. I get that this book is fiction and set in the 1950's, but it really got me thinking. #india #womenrights #1950

I, Robot | Isaac Asimov

A great collection of interrelated stories about robot creation & development as seen from the very imaginative eyes of 1950. Because of its date, some of its human portrayals feel dated, but you have to appreciate the vision to intuit how robot development might occur, through the ages of more sophistication, and how the problems of robots might be caused by human‘s misunderstanding & mishandling of how the 3 laws would interact.

RadicalReader @Riveted_Reader_Melissa what a wonderful sounding book nothing better than delving into the story the created the sensational storyline for the movie adaption 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @RadicalReader It‘s very good, but this volume has almost no direct parallel with the movie, however this book is the beginning of a series, and I‘m just guessing, but I think the film must have been based on one of the later books. 5y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @RadicalReader I just googled it, nope...the film of this name was based on a separate screenplay, but they used the name and 3 laws in their movie. And now the movie image is on Asimov‘s book, but he didn‘t write that screenplay/story. Talk about truth being stranger than fiction! 5y

LinaLovesLit @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I really liked it. I had to keep reminding myself that it wasn't exactly a true account of what happened, because I could hear Truman's voice when I read his lines. 7y
